Popular stand-up comedian Okey Bakassi has taken to social media to slam the chairman of Lagos State Parks and Garage Management Committee, MC Oluomo for insinuating that Igbos or the PDP may be responsible for selling stickers to commercial drivers and riders to fund Bola Tinubu’s presidential campaign.
Social media has been awash with a viral video of touts forcing tricycle riders to purchase Bola Tinubu’s campaign stickers for N500 ahead of the 2023 general election.
While reacting to the video, MC Oluomo suggested that either the Igbo or the PDP who are responsible for the ticket sales to discredit Tinubu, presidential candidate of the APC.
“Whether it is you, the Igbos who are devising these means or opposition PDP, don’t give us bad names,” he said in Yoruba Language in the video shared by Punch.

“Anywhere you see something like that, beat them and take (them) to (the police) station. Anyone you see selling such stickers in the name of parks and garages, arrest them and call my number.”
He added, “By the grace of God, Tinubu owns the presidency, and there is nothing enemies can do.”
While reacting to the comments made by MC Oluomo in a post on Instagram, Okey Bakassi slammed the chairman of Lagos State Parks and Garage Management Committee for dragging Igbos into the matter.
“Why drag Igbos into every problem in Nigeria? The hate is unnecessary and it’s becoming boring,” he wrote on Instagram.
